News Round Up 2018

[rteetz]

It has been strange ever since the D23 announcement. If I remember correctly, Pixar Pier was the one announcement that gathered the least amount of cheers/applause during the Parks and Resorts Presentation.

I have always had hope that Pixar Pier would do well. However, with it opening with two attractions not even opening yet, since when has Disney done something like that? New Fantasyland maybe? I consider that different since Disney added a lot of things. A lot of Pixar Pier is just overlays of existing attractions.

Pixar Pier is entirely overlays. The inside out attraction is overlaying Fliks from Bugsland. I think they could’ve done much better.

55th, whaaaaaa? Just because we have 5 fingers on our hands, it's worthwhile to celebrate this?

This is pure speculation (I have no source to be clear): It feels like there is something up with the Pixar Pier backstory and how that project has played out that hasn't been reported imo, more than likely tied to the Lasseter Fall out (someone correct me if I'm wrong but he was gung-ho about this overlay from what I can recall).

All that being said - I am quite excited about the Lamplight Lounge (have my reservations booked for lunch and dinner in July), the merch, as well as the new load building for the Incredicoaster.

He was overly excited when he announced it at the D23 Expo last year. I don't think anything from the Pixar Pier announcement has changed from the final product to my knowledge.

Your best bet is to call the parks and see if you can get them to sell it to you and ship it like you were a resort guest
